Sannai Maruyama Iseki Review

Interested in archeology? Want to know what it was like to live in Japan 5,500 years ago? This, one of the largest archaeological sites in Japan, features a reconstructed Jomon settlement that lasted for roughly1,500 years, from 3500 BC to 2000 BC. After an extensive excavation, it was opened to the public and has attracted crowds of schoolchildren and others. Its interactive approach encourages visitors to try crafts making, Jomon fashion, and cuisine.
